Anyhow, your hygrometer might be lying to you. They can be as much as 10-15% off. It's not a big deal as long as you can use the hygrometer to put your cigars where you like them RH-wise but the calibration can be checked: salt test
well, my hygrometer is digital, so I don't think I can calibrate it
